Fauxtogs who should end up on the main page…

I… Think it is trying to communicate with us! So you own Two modeling agencies? *snort* for some reason I have a hard time believing that. Based upon your grammar and lack there of. I have a hard time believing anything you say. And by get them on your bed… Are you implying you had sexual relations with your clients? If so you are the worst kind of faux out there.

@ mkeller

“i have 170 models that work with me,, ask any of them what kind of person i am.”

I’d guess the answer would be (amongst other things) “literally challenged”. Do I win something?

Its not about what im doing. Its the fact none of you know me and posting awful things about me. I just dont understand it. If you truly care about our passion, you should actually respect the fact that we make sure that the models are safe and dont get hooked up with the creepers that are out there . The ones that give photographers a bad name. And NO, I dont sleep with the models.lol

Any chance of someone linking to the original post? My memory isn’t what it used to be

[mkeller]

now I remember, not the most tasteful photography but not enough to think you’re a pervert. I would say however your consistency is awful, you have nice shots that could be in a lad’s mag and then you have absolute disasters that are worthy of the front page. Including those train wrecks doesn’t scream professionalism to me

Too much skin smoothing on most of the models, and some of the poses don’t look ‘sexy’ but scary..

Apparently Justine is stepping down from being a photographer because God did not want her to be a photographer. And she admitted to using a point-and-shoot. So her alter-ego Marissa is taking over the page and then planning to take it down, apparently.

The thing with Justine is, who cares if she loves taking pictures. Everyone has a right to take fun shapshots of their kids and friends and post them to Facebook. But one should not advertise that they are a photographer. She just failed to see the difference.

This guys photography seems to tick all the wrong boxes

His prices make no sense at all…

http://www.bobsearle.net/special-offers.html

His portraits look like they were bought at the photoshop of horrors…

and he even shows weddings from the archives, so you can see how little he has improved over the years..

@WCS – His website states that he has over 30yrs of experience – all I can say is wow! I somewhat understand the faux’s that get the shiny new DSLR, their friends tell them how great they are and they think they can become pros – it just ignorance and not really appreciating the craft due to lack of experience and knowledge.  But guys like this I will never understand. I mean he didn’t even accidentally take a good photo. Thirty years?? A bunch of on camera flash, bad poses, terrible light, lousy framing,  no regard for backgrounds –  the list goes on.

For someone (apparently) so experienced there is little thought whatsoever to the pictures being taken. Have to shake my head on this one.

@jim-e — “Professional” just means money is involved.  “Experience” suggests practice, though not necessarily growth.

If you shoot 10,000 photos of the same thing, in the same light, virtually the same way every time, do you have as much experience as the person who shoots 5,000 photos of various subjects in varying light at many locations?

[jim-e]

Actually, I never used the word “professional”, I was commenting purely from a photo-graphical perspective.  My meaning was that for somebody that has as much apparent experience as he does, I would expect a certain amount of fundamentals regarding photographing people. But experience definitely does not equal good, so really I shouldn’t be surprised.
